From 481a8199142c050b72bff8a1956a49fd0a75bbe0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oliver Hartkopp Date: Tue, 15 Sep 2009 01:31:34 -0700 Subject: can: fix NOHZ local_softirq_pending 08 warning When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a ratelimit warning NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 for 10 times. The echo of CAN frames is done from process context and softirq context only. Therefore the usage of netif_rx() was wrong (for years). This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has to be used from process/softirq context. It also adds a missing comment that can_send() must no be used from hardirq context.
